Biological Activity

Patupilone (Epothilone B) is a potent microtubule-stabilizing agent and microtubule function inhibitor with an IC50 of. By binding to tubulin, it promotes microtubule assembly and suppresses microtubule dynamics in a concentration-dependent manner. This induction of microtubule stabilization leads to mitotic cell cycle arrest at the G2/M transition, preventing proper cell division and inducing apoptotic cell death in targeted cancer cells. [1]

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
